    I have set Locations for field groups: 2 groups for user role author and 2 groups for user role editor.
    But the field groups for the author are not appearing for the author, while the groups for the editor are appearing, for editor and for author.
    See here for a video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1T5pRdkKa4PtwT5rZUwXs0m9xYniz0VQL/view?usp=sharing

    Although it should not make any difference: with the Members plugin I have renamed editor to Creator and author to Co-Producer.

    How can I get this corrected?

    Hello Eddy,

    Thanks for reaching out.

    If you select the option "User Role", the user with the selected role will see the field group when editing the user. For example: you are "humilis" user, you have the role Creator, you will see the field groups "Creator Design" and "License" but not the field groups "Documents" and "Various".

    You can try to set the "User role" to "Administrator" for all field groups and recheck this issue. Read more about the include/exclude settings in the documentation https://docs.metabox.io/extensions/meta-box-include-exclude/
